Application Number:	08/490,978
Claims:	1. A naphthyridine carboxylic acid compound represented by the following formula (I) : ##STR267## and its pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic salt, its physiologically hydrolyzable ester, solvate and isomer, in which R represents hydrogen, methyl or amino; Q represents N; R.sub.1 represents cyclopropyl, ethyl, or phenyl which is substituted with one or more fluorine atom(s); R.sub.2 represents one of the following a) through e): a) hydrogen, straight or branched C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, cyclopropyl, cyclopropylmethyl, C.sub.3 -C.sub.6 alkynyl, 2-haloethyl, methoxymethyl, methoxycarbonylmethyl, aryl or allyl, b) a group of the following formula (1), ##STR268## wherein X represents hydrogen, 2, 3 or 4-fluoro, cyano, nitro, methoxy, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, or 2,4-difluoro, c) a group of the following formula (2), ##STR269## d) a heteroarylmethyl of the following formula (3), ##STR270## e) a group of the following formula (4), ##STR271## wherein n denotes 0 or 1, m denotes 0, 1 or 2 and X represents methylene, O or N, and R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 independently of one another represent hydrogen or C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 alkyl or R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 together with a nitrogen atom to which they are attached can form a ring. 2. The compound of claim 1, wherein Q represents N, R represents hydrogen or amino, R.sub.1 represents cyclopropyl or 2,4-difluorophenyl, and R.sub.2 represents hydrogen, methyl, isopropyl, t-butyl, phenyl, homopropargyl, 2-fluoroethyl, benzyl, 2-fluorobenzyl, 2-methylbenzyl or 2-methoxybenzyl. 3. The compound of claim 2, wherein Q represents N, R represents hydrogen or amino, R.sub.1 represents cyclopropyl and R.sub.2 represents methyl, t-butyl, homopropargyl, 2-fluoroethyl, benzyl, 2-fluorobenzyl or 2-methoxybenzyl. 4. The compound of anyone of claims 1 to 3, wherein R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are hydrogen. 5. An antibacterial composition comprising as an active component the compound of formula (I) as defined in claim 1, together with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. 6. The composition of claim 5 comprising 1 to 100 mg of the compound of formula (I) in a unit dosage form.
